Review from Amanda M (Mother of Child) published on 31 July 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
From the moment our daughter joined at just one year old until now, almost four years later, every single member of staff has shown her genuine love, warmth, and kindness. From the Centre Director to the nursery practitioners, everyone is approachable, friendly, and truly invested in the wellbeing of the children.
What has always stood out to us is that they don't just look after children; they genuinely care for them. Child safety is clearly at the heart of everything they do, and as parents, that has given us complete peace of mind every single day. We have always felt that our daughter was safe, valued, encouraged, and loved.
Busy Bees Norwich Airport created an environment where diversity wasn't just talked about but it was lived. As Africans we always felt welcomed, respected, and included. That sense of belonging has meant more to our family than words can express.

To every member of the team: thank you for the incredible work you do every day.

Overall Experience

I have two children at Busy Bees Norwich Airport, and I honestly couldn't be happier with the care and service our family receives. From the moment we walk through the doors, the team is always so welcoming, friendly, and supportive.

The team consistently goes above and beyond to help our family, and nothing ever seems like too much trouble. Every member of staff is outstanding, and my boys absolutely love going to nursery. It's clear how much everyone genuinely cares about the children and their wellbeing.

The app is always kept up to date with everything from what the boys have eaten to how they've slept and the activities they've enjoyed throughout the day. It gives me complete peace of mind knowing exactly how they're doing while I'm at work.

When I collect them, they're always happy, settled, and excited to tell me about their day. The activities are fun, engaging, and educational, helping them learn, grow, and develop while enjoying themselves.

Review from Holly O (Mother of Child) published on 17 July 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My child started busy bees Norwich airport a few years ago after moving to a new house. Before this he was with a different nursery but since starting busy bees we noticed such a difference as well as us teaching him things, he also massively progressed whilst at nursery. We have since had another child who now attends and has been for the past 3 months and they both absolutely thrive at nursery, they're both always excited to attend and my eldest would love to be there on weekends if he could! Everyone in the setting is so warm and welcoming and all the staff know the children's names. There are so many different activities inside and outside and always something in the hallway for the children to interact with. I would highly recommend busy bees Norwich airport to anyone!

Review from Trish W (Mother of Child) published on 9 July 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My child has been attending the nursery for over a year now, and I am pleased with my choice. My child is quite reserved and it felt like there have not been any pressure to change, to fit in or be anything other than themselves. If I didn't feel like targets were in line with her best interests, it was a safe space to share my thoughts. The staff always seemed to be accommodating around my child's temperament and preferences, and like they wanted to know my child for who they were. My child's development has been well supported, the food served is nutritious, and I love how much time is spent outdoors, no matter the weather. Yes, it is not perfect - for example, staff changes are quite frequent, there isn't always as much flexibility available as needed in an ideal world, and the app updates can be sporadic. However, on the whole, the nursery and everyone in it always made me and my child feel heard, supported and like it is a joy for the child to be there. Thank you!

Review from Sarah H (Mother of Child) published on 8 December 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We have been extremely happy with the care and dedication given to our two children at this nursery over the past 4 years. The setting provides a fun and engaging environment where we have felt our daughters individual needs have been consistently met. Our oldest daughter wears hearing aids and required additional support with her language development. This was recognised early by staff and measures put in place to address it, her key worker was excellent at focussing on her needs helping her to progress quickly, ensuring she was level with her peers. We love the emphasis from a young age to encourage independence, which the kids also really enjoy. The food is amazing, freshly made on site to a high standard and very nutritious with a 6 week menu. We regularly attempt to encourage our children to eat our home cooked meals but stating we got the recipe from Busy Bees!

Overall Experience
We have been using Busy Bees Norwich Airport for the past 4 years, with both of our children starting their journeys here at around 9 months old. With our daughter now starting school, we've had the chance to experience every stage of the setting.
The Busy Bees team provide a warm, welcoming atmosphere that extends to the whole family. They consistently demonstrate care, patience, dedication and a genuine interest in our children, which has given us great confidence that our children are safe, happy, and thriving.

We are so grateful for the support, encouragement, and nurturing environment they have created-helping our children grow in confidence, independence, and readiness for school. We would wholeheartedly recommend Busy Bees Norwich Airport to any family looking for a caring and supportive start to their child's early years.

Overall Experience

My eldest son had been at busy bees from 10 months old until 4 and a half, hes thrived here and they have been instrumental in helping his speech, social skills and eating habits. I cannot thank the staff enough for their continuous support & care. Our 2 year old is at the nursery also, he is also thriving and loves going! The staff are all friendly & professional, and will also go the extra mile to take care of our little ones. Its a wonderful nursery, we would highly recommend.

Overall Experience

Our daughters have been attending Busy Bees since they were six months (they are now 3.5 and 1.5 respectively) and we've had nothing but a positive experience. Both girls have a fantastic time and a really strong relationship with the staff who always make time to bond with the children. We are amazed at the level of activities the children get to do - our eldest has been learning about Greek gods and has loved it! The food is excellent (it is all cooked on site) and no two days seem the same.

Overall Experience
My daughter started the nursery as she turned one, as all little ones it took her a couple of weeks for her to settle but the way the staff took care of her and helped her settle in was amazing.
The way they help with her deployment and teaching her new things is amazing. And you always know that she has the best day playing and learning when she is there.

I recommend busy bees at the airport to anyone who is looking for a nursery.

Review from Natalia F (Mother of Child) published on 13 October 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Team at Busy Bees at Norwich Airport have been amazing in looking after both of my sons. My oldest one is now at school but everyone is super friendly towards him when he joins me at the drop offs for his 2 year old brother.
All key persons have developed very good relationships with them which makes most morning transitions tear-free for my son and stress-free for me.
My 2 year old has a diary allergy and both staff at the kitchen and in the room always make sure his meals are dairy free and table is cleaned of any spilled dairy products when he sits down for his meals.

It's a very good and happy place for kids to spend their time.

Overall Experience

My child has been at Busy Bees Norwich Airport for over a year now and she is absolutely thriving. All the staff in her room have a great bond with her and genuinely seem to know my child's likes and dislikes, I have full confidence that she is in the best possible hands. My Daughter loves being outside and engaging in all the different activities on offer to her. The staff in the office are also very helpful and approachable if I have any questions. Mine and my Daughters experience of Busy Bees Norwich Airport is a positive one, the lovely photos and updates I receive really reinforce that.

I can't recommend Busy Bees Nursery enough! The staff are so kind and welcoming, and they really make the children feel at home. My little one is always excited to go in the morning and comes home happy, full of stories about the fun activities they've done. We've seen such a positive change in confidence and learning since joining. It's clear the team genuinely care, and that makes all the difference. We're so grateful to have found Busy Bees!

Review from Adam G (Father of Child) published on 24 September 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I cannot speak highly enough of Busy Bees, Norwich Airport. The centre management and staff in general have all played a key role in developing our daughter from the day she joined 3 years ago to her final day as she now heads to her first school. The environment created is both fun and educational and we have seen development in our daughter as she has moved through each class. The facilities at the centre are well maintained and looked after which again help create a positive learning environment for young children to thrive. There is a clear commitment to developing of young children and a consistent approach from staff members to ensure this vision is delivered. Our daughter has loved her time at Nursery and the key factor in that is the staff who have helped make her journey so enjoyable. Our daughter is both sad at leaving the nursey but excited for school and again this is credit to the Nursery in that our daughter is sad to leave but feels excited and well prepared for school.

Review from Dale S (Father of Child) published on 25 June 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter has been attending Busy Bees at Norwich airport for just over 2 years. Since starting at 6 months and it has been a brilliant experience.
The staff have always been lovely and my daughter thrives and always enjoys attending. The variety of food prepared is brilliant and I strongly believe has contributed to my daughter having such a wide palette (she eats almost everything!)
The nursery is well run and the management are always working hard to make things as simple as possible for parents regarding free childcare funding etc, which would be pretty complicated without their support.

The ONLY negative I can think of is that during hot weather during the summer months the staff have a really tough job keeping the building cool, I really think having air con installed would be a massive bonus not only for the children but the staff as well.

Overall Experience

My daughter has attended this nursery since she was 9 months old (now 18 months) and has flourished. She loves playing with the other children and her teachers. She has improved with her eating, speech and walking since attending this setting. The staff are wonderful and caring, they are respectful and proactive. I never have worried about how my daughter settles and whether she is looked after properly. She is always so excited to go to nursery and never seems to want to leave. We are having to move her nursery due to a house move and both of us are heartbroken to be leaving as she enjoys her time there so much.

Review from A R (Mother of Child) published on 17 February 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our son has been attending here since September 2023, we picked the nursery mainly due to location and the feel we got for it when visiting. Compared to some of the other places we visited, this was brighter, cleaner and friendlier. Our little boy loves it there, he frequently speaks about the staff and the things that he has learnt. He thoroughly enjoys all of the meals which are varied, home cooked and nutritional. They take care and time to get to know both your child and you as parents, to ensure you feel at ease and of the mindset that they know the best care for them. We sometimes say he prefers nursery to home as he has so much fun there! We would certainly recommend them.

Overall Experience
Incredible attention, love and care not only for my child but when I walk into the room, either at drop off or collection, the children are happy, playing and calm.

Even when a child is not wanting to leave their parent, the care that goes into settling that child and the genuine connections which have been can be seen and felt.
